Stragier brought in the third marker for the contest when Willey took his first of two hits in the game. As Douglas bobbled four times in the third, Claude Erskine lost all chance of hurling a shut-out and the stands went wild with the thought that the powerful Island nine might fall in .the first game of the play-off. Rustad erred to allow Skok first, Erskine walked Sturrock and Guy singled to bring| in Skok for the Moose’ first run. Then Fritz Schmitz made first when Nielsen bobbled and Ellen- berg apparently put the ball under, his hat while Sturrock turned his walk into a run. Rusty Rustad bob- bled again to allow Guy to make the third run and a good time was had by all . . . especially the Moose. Then Rusty Homers All was quiet with 1-2-3 ball for the next frame, but in the fifth with Willey on after a double, Rusty Rustad made up for his errors with a driving homer over center field fence and two more scores stood out on the score- board. In the eighth canto, as the Islanders got two more hits from Kern, the last run of the game came beating in as Eddy Nielsen, after making first on a walk, made the grade as both Stragier and Stewart took hot first base hits from Kern, In the first of the ninth, with two down and two strikes, Guy ticked out five fouls as fans, play- ers and Erskine, all held their breaths in what might have been the turn of the game. But Erskine burned one in over the center of the plate and Guy took the count to end the gamé. The box score follows: . Moose > W Player Guy, cf Schmitz, Martin If .

Mr. and Mrs. Larsen were out trolling with Peggy McLoed, fed- eral court stenographer here. Mrs. Larsen and Miss McLoed both had fish on their lines at the same time: As Miss McLeod hauled her catch, a good sized silver, near the boat, the fish gave a leap from the water, iumping up onto the deck and hit- ting Mrs. Larsen, who lost her bal- ance and fell, In the confusion which ensued, Mrs. Larsen’s fish escaped from the line.

Runs of salmon this year have been “cockeyed” as Olson expressed it, and not according to advance expectations. According to previous announcement, one district in Icy Straits will close to fishing tonight will be closed from now until Aug- ust 29, when the final closing will take place at South Prince of Wales. There will be no extension granted in the case of the Icy Straits clos- ing law to become effective tonight, {Olson stated.
